What is Geocaching? MY FIRST BLOG POST EVER!

What is Geocahing you may be wondering. Well, if you go to the website: http://www.geocaching.com it becomes relatively self evident. But to those who engage in it, it's far more than just a poor man's treasure hunt. It's a chance for exploration, adventure and being part of a secret global community. My boyfriend Joe and I, have been cachers since May 3rd, 2010, so we are still relatively new compared to those who have been geocaching since its inception in 2000.

We were introduced to the activity by our close friends, Neil and Mary (whom I will most likely reference often), as a cheap and entertaining summertime activity. Since then, we have blossomed into full fledged, competitive, OBSESSIVE geocachers!

I am an Illustrator and Graphic Designer by trade, who currently works and frolics in Mississauga Ontario. My boyfriend is a Comic Book Artist, avid video game player and all around stand up cat. Our little dog Tumbler is an adorable little fur-ball who couldn't care less about geocaching; she does however enjoy a good hike.



The main purpose of this blog is to share our exploits as we explore our beautiful surroundings. Since we began caching, we've managed to hit up some truly fascinating locations, spanning from Southern Ontario, to Quebec, to California.

I hope to share some interesting tales, photos and pieces of artwork, that might inspire each and every one of you to get outside and become fledgling adventurers! You'd be surprised at the sheer number of treasures that surround you at any given time... all you have to do is explore the possibilities! ;)
